C chicagodon Jun 25, 2012 #11 Quote from chipmunk: Hi, What's the maximum number of shares one can trade AAPL, day trade, before you would have problems with fills, exessive slippage, etc? I always wondered what was possible with a huge volume stock like AAPL. (20m+ day traded) Thank you More... Whats excessive? Its not that big of a deal, there is plenty of stock out there. Obviously you won't be able to 'scalp it' effectively, but if you are buying levels to hold you will be fine.
